Studying Time: 3 minutes
There are only a few secrets and techniques within the age of social media.
In reality, the times of blind objects — gossip tales wherein key particulars are revealed, however the names are saved beneath wraps — are principally a factor of the previous. It’s simply too simple these days for newbie on-line detectives to piece collectively the entire image.
And that’s a lesson that Reese Witherspoon is likely to be studying the arduous approach this week.

Reese Says a Bit Too A lot
The difficulty started throughout a joint interview with Reese and Will Ferrell.
The co-stars are selling their new film, You’re Cordially Invited, they usually sat down for a dialog wherein Reese would possibly’ve revealed greater than she supposed to whereas sharing the story of a former pal who now not speaks to her.
“It actually haunts me,” Witherspoon advised Ferrell in a bit that was printed in People on Thursday.
“So this pal of mine — who I didn’t actually know that properly, however she was a really severe, correct actress — she requested me to provide her an award.”


Reese went on to elucidate that she “had by no means been” to that specific awards ceremony, and he or she mistakenly “thought was like a roast.”
“So I bought up and I roasted her,” she recalled.
Sadly, “the tone was British and chic and fashionable. And I used to be like, ‘Keep in mind the time we bought laser hair elimination?!’” The joke, it appears, went over like a lead balloon.
“We’re not mates anymore. I’m not even kidding — we’re not mates anymore. I feel she doesn’t like me anymore,” Witherspoon went on.


“I believed it was so humorous, and it was simply, I had the incorrect viewers. It was fairly dangerous. I’m not even kidding, she doesn’t discuss to me anymore. Oh, properly.”
Has the Offended Brit Id Been Revealed?
Now, the celeb gossip website Just Jared is reporting {that a} bunch of web detectives have found out that the irate former pal is none aside from Kate Winslet.
They level out that Reese offered Kate with an artist of the yr award on the 2007 BAFTA/LA Cunard Britannia Awards.


“I at all times needed to be a European film star, put on large sun shades, elaborate neck scarves, smoke hand-rolled cigarettes and have savoir-faire and gravitas,” Reese quipped to the group that fateful day.
“Think about my luck when Kate Winslet moved into my neighborhood, rang my doorbell and stated, ‘Darling, Sam [Mendes] is off capturing, and I imagine our youngsters are the identical age. May they probably have a play date and oh, by the way in which, it’s nearly 9 o’clock and I’ve had nothing to do drink, do you have got any wine?’”
Witherspoon later joked that she needed to inform extra tales of her adventures with Kate, however they have been “too bawdy or tawdry or drunken to inform,” together with the time they “contemplated laser hair elimination.”
There are different theories floating round, with some claiming that Reese was referring to Nicole Kidman (unlikely, as Kidman is Australian, and Reese described the award present vibe as “very British), however Kate looks like the obvious perpetrator.
And now that she’s been dragged into this little mini-controversy, Kate has another reason to be indignant at Reese!
